Titleist DCI Oversize+ Golds

There is a downside to 5 degree gapping and hot faces in the short irons. At our short par-3 4th hole I normally use an 8 or a 9 iron. Yesterday it was into a stiff breeze so I took my 7-iron instead, which is 5 degrees less lofted than the 8 and is the shortest iron in the set with a 'speed pocket' and a hot face. I caught the ball particularly well and it sailed right over the green and was lost in the hedge behind it. It was an almost new ball as well! At least with the DCI's the gaps between clubs are smaller and the distances the ball goes are more consistent! :mmm:

Delc why don't you just bin the strong lofts and join me on weak lofts.

You are forever banging on about it.

As I keep saying, strong lofts are just a con by the manufacturers to make us think their clubs are better than they are, and to force us to buy extra clubs such as gap wedges and hybrids. The more people who are aware of this scam, the more likely they are to research the actual specs of the irons, and hopefully not buy such strong lofted sets!

What a load of tosh. I play weak lofts and still have a bag full of hybrids. Lowest iron in my bag is 5i which is a 6i in the new clubs. I have a pile of hybrids because they are so much easier to hit than old long irons.

I agree with your last statement!
